Installing Kluson diecast vintage tuners on a 1960 RB 150 Gibson banjo Kluson’s came on the banjo originally but were removed screw holes were filled in and different Tunners installed I’m putting Kluson’s back on but want to make sure the tuners are turned the right way If the screw holes were still there it would be a no brainer but the holes were filled Can you send a back side pic of the Kluson on the banjo so I could see them Thanks Bruce

Thanks Jake.
I always appreciate your videos and watch every one whether I need the information at the time or not. I appreciate you sharing your expertise and I try to store it all for possible future use. I figure that it’s just a matter of time before I will one day need the information that you share.

Thanks again,

Thanks for the video, Jake. I don’t have a banjo but these types of tuners would be useful on my mandolin. Does the company make similar tuners for use on other instruments?
